IT'S A BOY!

And here is our little baby boy! His head is on the right side there and if you look closely you can see his hands and rib cage. We got a nice view of his brain with a beautifully developed cerebellum and ventricular system. His heart also appears to be perfectly normal (along with everything else) but they are still going to do a fetal echocardiogram just to be sure, since Paul and I both have siblings who were born with holes.

I am so excited! It feels so weird to think that I'm having a "son." That word freaks me out. Along with "parenthood." And "potty-training."
